Chapter 309 Asking for Death!
The number one figure of the Lin family was also someone who had pulled the Lin family back from the edge of the cliff several times. His methods were iron-blooded. When Lin Tianyang heard this, he felt a chill in his heart. At this moment, he looked at the main seat with respect in his eyes. Seeing that the family head was talking to another old man, he did not say anything and quietly sat at the side. Just as he sat down, he asked Lin Zhen beside him, “Dad, who is this?”
“He’s Wang Dechang, the old master of the Wang family in the middle of Jiangnan,” said Lin Zhen, his eyes solemn.
As soon as he said this, Lin Tianyang’s heart trembled. Was this the old master of the Wang family who had made waves in the middle of Jiangnan?
In terms of size, the Wang family in the middle of Jiangnan and the Lin family in the east of Jiangbei could be considered to be on the same level. However, in recent years, the Wang family had established a Chamber of Commerce in the middle of Jiangnan and became the core of the huge Chamber of Commerce. In addition, Jiangnan had abundant resources and a developed economy, causing the Wang family to soar into the sky. Now, even Old Master Lin lowered his head in front of Wang Dechang.
Moreover, it was said that the Wang family’s strength was not limited to this. There were still a few large figures supporting them from behind. Otherwise, how could they dare to be so unrestrained? Moreover, their development in the past few years had already accumulated too much strength for the Wang family. In a few years, the number one family in Jiangnan would probably change owners.
Lin Tianyang looked at the young man behind Grandfather Wang. He had starry eyes and sharp eyebrows. He could be considered a talent. At this moment, he was standing beside Grandfather Wang in a formal suit. This should be the eldest young master of the Wang family, Wang Jinpeng.
Wang Dechang took a sip of tea and looked at Lin Zhongxun in front of him. “It’s been a long time since we’ve had tea together. Such a calm day is rare.”
“Brother Wang, you’ve displayed your skills in the middle of Jiangnan, so you’re naturally a little busy.” Lin Zhongxun smiled.
“I’m old, I’m old. These things have to be handed over to the next generation.” Wang Dechang waved his hand and looked at the young man behind him. “This is my grandson, Jinpeng. Jinpeng, greet Grandpa Lin.”
“Grandpa Lin.” Wang Jinpeng looked at Lin Zhongxun with a respectful expression.
“Not bad. You’re a good child. Just with your calmness, I know that you can shoulder great responsibility in the future.” Lin Zhongxun was not stingy with his praise, making Wang Jinpeng immediately bow. “Grandpa Lin, you’re too kind.”
As Lin Zhongxun spoke, he looked at Wang Jinpeng’s performance. Whether it was his manner or speech, this person had the demeanor of a great family. He was neither servile nor overbearing. It seemed that the Wang family had a successor. There was hope for Changyang.
Compared to the Wang family, the younger generation of the Lin family was a little ordinary. This was also what he was worried about. Otherwise, he would not have nurtured Lin Wan’er as a direct descendant and hoped that she could shoulder the Lin family’s business.
Wang Dechang looked at Lin Zhongxun. “I wonder if Brother Lin invited the Bai family this time?”
“Yes, but the Bai family has always been elusive. The Bai family is naturally different from us. I wonder if they will come this time.” As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent. After all, the Bai family was indeed elusive. Compared to their passion for money, the Bai family could be said to be unique in the entire Jiangnan. They rarely caused a huge commotion. However, even so, no one dared to underestimate this family.
Everyone knew that in Jiangnan, in terms of wealth and power, it was most likely that the Sha family was number one. However, in terms of fists, the Bai family was definitely the number one family in Jiangnan. They all knew a little about it.
Seeing that the atmosphere had fallen silent, Grandfather Wang chuckled. “Brother Lin, didn’t you know that Lin Wan’er, the younger generation of the Lin family, is here? I really want to see this little girl. She went to Jiangbei alone and could turn the tide. This is not something an ordinary person can do. Jiangbei is not a good place now.”
“I heard that a top figure appeared in Jiangbei and swept through the entire eastern part of Jiangbei alone.”
As he spoke, even Lin Zhongxun nodded. However, Lin Zhongxun did not investigate too deeply. Then, he looked down and saw Lin Tianyang, but he did not see Lin Wan’er. He immediately exclaimed softly.
Lin Tianyang looked at the family head and immediately smiled apologetically. “Family Head, Wan’er might have been delayed on the way and will only arrive later.”
“No way. We saw Wan’er outside just now. Moreover, there was a boy beside him. Wan’er said that he was her boyfriend.”
What?
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Then, they looked at Lin Jiang, who had walked in from the door. Lin Zhongxun, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at Lin Jiang. “Xiao Jiang, don’t spout nonsense.”
“Grandpa, I’m not spouting nonsense. Wang Yi and I saw it just now.”
Beside him, Wang Yi also nodded. In the next moment, many people in the hall looked at Lin Tianyang’s family and sneered. They were from the main family, so they naturally knew why the old master of the Wang family had personally brought his grandson here this time. It was to arrange a marriage for his grandson, and the target was Lin Wan’er.
Even Old Master Lin had made a verbal promise about this matter. However, he wanted to wait for Lin Wan’er to come today to confirm it.
However, Lin Wan’er’s actions were really embarrassing him. At that moment, although Lin Zhongxun’s expression was indifferent, his eyes narrowed. Grandfather Wang’s expression did not change, but Wang Jinpeng’s expression darkened. Was someone actually snatching his woman?
The atmosphere fell silent again. Lin Tianyang looked into the eyes of the family head and sighed. He was instantly stunned.
Lin Tianyang had never seen such a sharp gaze from the family head before. He immediately knew that the family head was angry. At the same time, Lin Zhen, who was sitting beside him, was so angry that his face turned red. He glared at Lin Tianyang. Seeing this situation, he could only sigh and slowly tell him the whole story.
Hearing his words, the mockery on their faces intensified.
Even Lin Lian snorted coldly at the side. “Brother, aren’t you pushing Wan’er into a fire pit? How can a person from a small county be worthy of Wan’er? I really don’t know what you’re thinking. Moreover, I don’t know how this kid has lived for so many years. Is he as well-educated as us? I’m afraid he’s an illiterate and vulgar person.
As she spoke, she was not afraid that the people around her would laugh at them.
On the seat, the sharpness in Lin Zhongxun’s eyes became even more intense. It was just as Lin Lian had said. The two sides were not from the same family. They were really messing around!
On the other hand, Wang Dechang, who had been a little touched just now, chuckled.
“Brother Lin, so that’s how it is. I also understand the whole story.” Lin Zhongxun smiled apologetically. “It’s all my fault for this matter. I didn’t investigate properly and came to a conclusion in a hurry.”
